Timeline

This is a timeline for the in-universe events. For a timeline of the canonical installments in the series, see here.

Not to be confused with the element, Time.

“The dragon had the power to create. The Oni had the power to destroy. Their war was never ending. But a child arrived, born of both worlds. The child understood the power of both. Without one, you could not have the other. But when the Oni and the dragon fought over which side the child should choose, the child abandoned their world to start a new one called Ninjago.”

— Mystake telling the beginning of the Realm of Oni and Dragons, "The Oni and the Dragon"

The timeline is a chronological list of the important events that have occurred in the known history of the world of Ninjago and the other realms.

Before time had a name

Note: According to Tommy Andreasen, the following event may have started 10,000 years in the past since it's easier to understand and work with.

• The Ethereal Divide had always existed before the creation of the Sixteen Realms.
• The Overlord had always existed.
• The seven Source Dragons have always existed.
  • Through the Source Dragons, the Elemental Powers are formed.
• The First Realm (the Realm of Oni and Dragons) comes into being, or simply had always existed.
• Ninjago, the Underworld, the Realm of Madness, the Cursed Realm, the Cloud Kingdom, the Wyldness, Djinjago, the Departed Realm, the Never-Realm, Imperium, the Realm of Lee, Mysterium and four other unknown realms eventually manifest.
• The Cursed Realm and Djinjago become sister realms.
• The Writers of Destiny take a role in several of the realms' events, helping guide, though not necessarily controlling, their destiny.
• At some point in time, the Oni and dragons fight in the First Realm. Centuries later, the First Spinjitzu Master, a hybrid between dragons and Oni, was born.
• The First Spinjitzu Master, together with the Firstbourne, the mother of all dragons who can blast all elements from its mouth, create the Dragon Armor and the Dragonbone Blade to end the war between the dragons and the Oni. Legends told that the owner of the Dragon Armor would be able to control Firstbourne, like the First Spinjitzu Master did.
• The First Spinjitzu Master creates the Realm Crystal.
• After failing to end the war, the First Spinjitzu Master uses the Realm Crystal to escape from the Realm of Oni and Dragons. Firstbourne was left behind in the Realm of Oni and Dragons, waiting for the First Spinjitzu Master to come back.
• Around 10,000 years before the Ghost invasion, Fenwick and Quanish are born in the Cloud Kingdom.

Millennia ago

Pre-Ninjago

• The First Spinjitzu Master arrived in an ocean-filled realm engulfed in chaos, caused by a giant serpent named Wojira, who held control over the elements of Water and Wind. He decided that if the world was to be a peaceful realm, he must defeat her, so he worked alongside the Merlopians and the islanders to fight her.
• The First Spinjitzu Master, Merlopians, and islanders struggled to beat Wojira and were nearly defeated by her. As a last resort, the first Elemental Master of Water, Nyad, attempted to pry the Storm Amulet and Wave Amulet from Wojira's head, but had to resort to merging with the ocean forever to do it. With the sources of her power torn away from from her, Wojira fell into a deep sleep and wouldn't be awakened again for thousands of years.
• The First Spinjitzu Master gave the Storm Amulet to the islanders and Wave Amulet to the Merlopians.
• The First Spinjitzu Master forges the Golden Weapons at the Temple of Light (using gold from the Golden Peaks).
• With the four weapons, he creates the island of Ninjago.
• Sometime after the First Spinjitzu Master fled from the Realm of Oni and Dragons and created Ninjago, the Oni pursued him and created the Oni Temple.
• After falling in love with the lands that the First Spinjitzu Master created, Mystake turned on the other Oni.
• When the Oni are defeated, the warlords' three Oni Masks - the Mask of Vengeance, the Mask of Deception, and the Mask of Hatred - are left behind in Ninjago where over time, the three masks are separated to different places.

Stone Wars: The First Battle of Ninjago

• Having been drawn towards the light of the new island, the Overlord manifests himself in the shadows of the new land and declares war to decide the fate of Ninjago.
• The Overlord's corruption quickly spreads across the island until he is challenged by the First Spinjitzu Master.
• The Stone Wars: the Overlord creates the Stone Army to combat the First Spinjitzu Master, as well as the Temple of Fortitude to fortify against the Golden Power. To combat the Overlord, the First Spinjitzu Master uses the power of the Golden Dragon and Golden Mech to fight him off.
• Unable to stop the Overlord, the First Spinjitzu Master splits Ninjago into two smaller islands (Ninjago and the Dark Island), with the Overlord banished to the Dark Island and his corporeal form destroyed while the Stone Army is entombed underneath an area that would one day become Ninjago City, leaving the ultimate battle between good and evil undecided.

Note: It is possible for the First Spinjitzu Master to have brought humans from another realm.

• The Serpentine came into existence in the Wyldness and were relocated to Ninjago. Alongside with humans, they colonize the land, built cities, villages, and other places.

According to Tommy Andreasen, the following events may have taken place 3,000 years after the Beginning of the Sixteen Realms.

• Before the birth of his two sons, the First Spinjitzu Master bestows upon a group of humans the powers of the elements, forming the first Elemental Masters in Ninjago.
• Around a millennium before Aspheera's imprisonment, the First Spinjitzu Master and King Mambo promised a fragile peace between humans and Serpentine.
• Quanish, banished from the Cloud Kingdom by his brother and with no memory of his life, becomes a prophet and was known as a fool.

• The First Spinjitzu Master seeks out the Source Dragons and asks them to freely distribute him some of their energy.
• With the power of the Source Dragons, the First Spinjitzu Master creates the three Dragon Cores, which is powerful enough to keep all the realms in balance.
• The First Spinjitzu Master created the Temple of the Dragon Cores in the World Forest.
• A coalescence was prevented due to the power of the Dragon Cores.
• Fearing what evil-hearted people would do with the Cores, the First Spinjitzu Master hides the cores in the Mother Garden, the Pinnacle of Crystals, and in the Lava Wastes located in the Wyldness. The Mucoids and Lava-Tides are entrusted to protect the cores.
• The First Spinjitzu Master created murals that depict the locations of the Dragon Cores, protected by its spirit.

The Rise of the Forbidden Five

• Millennia before the Ritual of the Blood Moon, the Forbidden Five, Elemental Masters from the Wyldness, founded the Wolf Clan, a renowned group who studied the Forbidden Five's teachings.
• The Forbidden Five discovered Theroxian and invented Shatterspin, leading to the corruption of themselves and the wolf warriors.

• Some time after Garmadon and Wu used the scrolls of Forbidden Spinjitzu to fight Aspheera, they spar one day, but Wu loses one of the katanas over the wall of the monastery. Afraid of their father's disapproval, Wu chooses not to go after it, but Garmadon does. In the process, he is bitten by the young Great Devourer and becomes ill as its evil venom starts to affect him, even causing him to tell his father that he hates him and blaming Wu for all that happened.
  • While the brothers are sparring, Future Wu and the Time Twins are briefly transported outside the monastery before warping away again.

The Creation of Amber

• A blacksmith from Metalonia, who envied the Elemental Masters' abilities found fascination in an ancient, crooked tree that sported a mystical amber substance that ensnared anything that approached it.

After that, Jay discovers his True Potential by knowing he is the best version of himself. He saves Nya in the nick of time by stopping the rollercoaster. After that, Jay tells the other 2 ninja that Nya is actually Samurai X.
• The ninja are searching for the second Fangblade and Cole says he has seen the Fangblade on the Blade Cup, a trophy which his father had won many times. The ninja go to Cole's father, Lou, and train to be dancers to get the Cup but the Serpentine learn about it as well. The ninja go to the Concert Hall of Ninjago City and win the Cup because of Cole doing the Triple Tiger Sashay, a move that has never successfully been performed by anyone, and because of their great performance. Cole was very sad after, because he wanted his dad to watch him dance. Lou comes and genuinely comforts his son by telling him that the Serpentine are evil and that he saw him dance. However, Pythor steals the second Fangblade and attempts to crush Cole and his father, leading Cole to discover his True Potential after realizing that he was born to be a ninja, not a dancer.

Time skips

• As of "The Stone Army," enough time passed for the museum curator to state that the attack of the Great Devourer had taken place "some time back."
• At least a few weeks passed between Rebooted and Tournament of Elements.
• 6 months have passed between "Day of the Departed" and Way of the Departed.
• A year passed between the events of The Hands of Time and Sons of Garmadon.
• At least 2 years passed between Rise of the Snakes (or later) and Sons of Garmadon, as Mystake stated it'd "been years" since she last saw Lloyd (even though she was not shown to interact with him before that point).
• A week passed between the events of Sons of Garmadon and Hunted.
• At least 6 months passed between the events of March of the Oni and Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu.
• A few weeks have passed between "Boobytraps and How to Survive Them" and "Awakenings," as that's how long it took for Kai to get his powers back.
• At least a couple of weeks passed between the events of Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu and Prime Empire.
• A short amount of time passed between Prime Empire and Master of the Mountain, as the ninja's laundry from their last adventure was not done at the start of Master of the Mountain.
• A month passed between the events of "Level Thirteen" and The Island.
• Between The Hands of Time and Seabound several years have passed, as P.I.X.A.L. built and began tinkering with the Hydro Bounty sometime after she regained a body.
• Enough time passed between The Island and Seabound for Zane to verify the memories of the information about Wojira in his database.
• Exactly 1 year passes between Nya's sacrifice in "The Turn of the Tide" and the first episode of Crystalized, "Farewell the Sea."
• At least 2 years have passed between the events of Hunted and Crystalized according to Kai in "Darkness Within".
  • Using this piece of information and P.I.X.A.L.'s statement in "Unsinkable", around a year has passed between the events of Sons of Garmadon and Hunted, which take place in a similar timeframe, and Seabound.
  • Using the same statements, at least 3 years have passed between the events of The Hands of Time, and Crystalized.
• Multiple years passed between the Merge and the main events of Dragons Rising Season 1. The exact amount of time is unknown, but it has been long enough that Arin, Sora, and Wyldfyre, who were children with short legs, have grown into teenagers with standard-sized minifigure legs instead of the medium legs that older children/younger teenagers have. At least 3 years have passed, as Arin and Sora say that there have been multiple previous Crossroads Carnivals before the current one in "Crossroads Carnival."
• At least 1 year has passed between "Crossroads Carnival" and "The Mech Master," since the Crossroads Carnival is an annual event and the editions are different in each one of the two episodes.
• A few months have passed between the The Elemental Mechs and Dragons Rising Season 2.
• A few weeks has passed between "The Spell at the Waterfall" and "The Forest of Spirits," as that's how long Nya mentioned when Wyldfyre needed a crutch for after her leg broke.

The following time spans are based on creator statements and are not officially set in stone or defined. Note that the ninja are confirmed to be teenagers during the original series, and that the passage of time in the show is kept mostly vague.

• The time span between the events of Legacy of the Green Ninja and Rebooted was "Not that long really."
• The longest time span between seasons, as of mid-2016, was the time span between Rebooted and Tournament of Elements.
• "Not much time passed" and it was "Not long" between the events of Tournament of Elements and Possession.
• Around 3 or 4 years passed between the events of Legacy of the Green Ninja and Skybound or "Day of the Departed."
• Around 2 years passed between the events of Rebooted and Skybound or "Day of the Departed."
• Not much time passed between Possession and "Day of the Departed," as "ghosts cannot remain in Ninjago for long without a vessel."
• Around 3 to 5 years passed between the events of the pilot episodes and The Hands of Time.

Continuity errors

• In Cole's flashback in "The Jade Princess," Cole says his father is never home, leaving all the chores for him. This contradicts what Cole said in "The Royal Blacksmiths," which was that he ran away from home and had kept in contact with his father through letters.
• In Zane's flashback in "Snake Jaguar," Master Wu is already in his usual appearance instead of his young design. This contradicts how Garmadon's banishment to the Underworld and Dr. Julien's death take place within a close timespan, seeing as Dr. Julien's hair is a darker gray in this episode, while it was white and he was much older when Samukai revived him as seen in "The Last Voyage."
  • When asked about this, Tommy Andreasen stated "These answers have yet to be given" and will be revealed "Only if it relevant for the storyline."

Information about Lilly and Grief-Bringer from the LEGO Life app

• The LEGO Life app states that Lilly defeated Grief-Bringer 15 years ago. Lilly would have lost her powers when Cole was born, and it is implied Lilly defeated Grief-Bringer when she still had her powers. However, Jay has stated that the ninja are "grown-up teenagers," implying a higher age than 15.
• In the TV series, Cole is older than Lloyd, who was born before Garmadon was banished to the Underworld. However, in a canon comic from a magazine issue, Cole's birth is placed after Garmadon's banishment, which would make Cole younger than Lloyd.
  • Additionally, the comic shows Wu with his young appearance after the point in time when Dr. Julien was captured, even though Wu appeared as an old man when he was shown in "Snake Jaguar" to have met Dr. Julien before the latter's imprisonment.
• Despite the fact that Krux disguised himself as Dr. Saunders long before the events of the series, in Legacy of the Green Ninja, another curator is shown.
  • According to Tommy Andreasen, this curator is "just a guy," implying there was simply more than one curator working at the museum at that point.
• The part about the Scrolls of Forbidden Spinjitzu in The Book of Spinjitzu differs from what is shown in the show, because according to the book, Wu and Garmadon were looking for a cookbook when they found the scroll and Garmadon wanted to use it because it "called" him. Eventually, they found the scroll and revealed its secrets.
  • The same book also shows that Wu and Garmadon learned Spinjitzu as teenagers, although they knew it as children in the show.
    • Tommy Andreasen explained that because Wu and Garmadon are thousands of years old, "‘teens’ and ‘kids’ are quite abstract when it comes to them."
• Although Vania became the queen in "The Son of Lilly," Cole still refers to her as Princess Vania in "Nyad" and in the next season.
  • When asked about this, Tommy Andreasen stated that he just may have gotten used to calling her and probably thinks of her as a princess.
• In "The Calm Before the Storm," Glutinous mentions the fake Storm Amulet from the Island of the Keepers. However, he was never told about the fake amulet nor where it came from by Kalmaar, who only replied that he got the Storm Amulet by using the same trick the ninja did to him in "The Storm Amulet."

Trivia

• Tommy Andreasen offered "WRK" as label for the timeline, meaning "Wu Recruits Kai," referring to the first scene in the series.
• Many of the original series' main events were commenced by the events of the first season.
  • Lloyd released the Serpentine, who decided to release the Great Devourer that was finally defeated by Lord Garmadon with the Golden Weapons. Harumi also started hating the ninja, which comes into play later.
  • The Great Devourer's death in season one caused the Stone Army to awaken in Season 2, which also led to the Overlord's final battle with Lloyd and later Zane.
  • The Overlord's defeat left him vanquished and vengeful, and in the third season, he fought the ninja. Zane seemingly died when he defeated the Overlord.
    • After the loss of Zane, in season four the ninja went to find him on a mysterious island. They faced Master Chen's Anacondrai Cultists, which was banished to the Cursed Realm through Garmadon's sacrifice. However, this allowed Morro to escape.
  • Morro possessed Lloyd in season five and went on a quest to unleash the Preeminent, the physical manifestation of the Cursed Realm. Nya drowned the Preeminent, destroying the realm and killing its prisoners (including Garmadon).
  • Djinjago, the sister realm of the Cursed Realm, collapses due to the latter's destruction. Nadakhan seeks vengeance against the ninja, and though he succeeds, Jay uses his last wish to bring everything back to normal.
  • The events of season seven didn't directly correlate to the previous seasons' events—rather, they were in response to events from long before the pilot episodes.
  • Harumi, who was orphaned after the Great Devourer's rampage in season one, seeks to resurrect Lord Garmadon, who died in "Curseworld, Part II". This goal is ultimately fulfilled, and the original ninja and Wu wind up in the Realm of Oni and Dragons.
  • The ninja try to escape the Realm of Oni and Dragons in Season 9, while Wu ages back to his normal self after season seven's events. the Resistance holds up against Lord Garmadon's rule. Garmadon is defeated but warns of coming darkness.
• Due to time travel, the ninja have been involved in multiple events that transpired before they were born.
  • Kai and Nya fought the Time Twins after they went back in time to attempt to destroy the past Elemental Masters after their initial defeat.
  • Zane was sent into the Never-Realm's past, where he reigned as the Ice Emperor for decades.
• In "Grave Danger," the ninja see visions decades in the future, where Jay has an eyepatch and ends up with Nya. Jay, Kai, and Zane have robes that are similar to Wu's battle uniform, possibly indicating they have become teachers themselves. Despite the ninja's changes in appearance since then, this is still set to happen in the future.
• There are several names describing long periods, such as the First Age, which was during the reign of ancient Hypnobrai in the Serpentine Valley and took place some thousands of years ago, the Golden Age, which was some hundred years ago and the Era of the Stone Warrior, which was during the reign of Nadakhan in the sea two hundred years ago.
  • It is currently unknown why this period is called the Era of the Stone Warrior, as the Stone Army was defeated thousands of years ago and was not discovered until Legacy of the Green Ninja.
